PARIS — France will lift a ban on blood donations by gay and bisexual men starting next year, officials announced on Wednesday, joining a growing list of countries that have loosened or scrapped such restrictions, which many see as outdated vestiges of the 1980s AIDS crisis.
“Giving one’s blood is an act of generosity and of civic responsibility that cannot be conditioned by sexual orientation,†the health minister, Marisol Touraine, said in a statement. “While respecting the absolute security of patients, it is a taboo, a discrimination that is being lifted today.â€

TABOO?
Political Correctness will destroy western culture.
France raises the white (or should I say rainbow) flag again.
Europe is dying. The USA needs to untie itself from this millstone.
One more reason not to go to france.
Are they desperate for blood...or are they just trying to appease the sodomists?
How many innocent people will get AIDS due to the pandering to perverts?
The French will start importing sodomite free blood or traveling to get it
Is it just my own filtered POV or does it seem like the leftists who run the western world have gone stark raving nuts recently? Its one looney initiative after another, the next one worse than the last.
They really are pulling out all the stops to get us all killed.
The latter, of course.
Political Correctness is Cultural Marxism-—which is designed to collapse culture.
They actually destroy Reason and Logic—prevent it in children by filling children with lies and misinformation (cognitive dissonance) so when they are adults they can only “feel” what is good. They are incapable of being a critical “thinker-—like our Founding Fathers and all flourishing free cultures.
IT is to destroy Christianity-—the only rational religion which created the Age of Reason, Modern Science-—efficient/flourishing cultures— and Individualism (Individual Natural Rights from God)-—they want collective/peasant tribal minds where no rational thought can occur in people. They are easily controlled by rhetoric and the State.
Happy Slaves need to be just godless (non-thinking) animals.
France = INSANITY
Just scrape it from the seat of their pants.
I find it impossible to believe France or anywhere really NEEDS the contribution from less than 2% of the population.
Dennis Prager made an interesting comment on his radio show last week.
He said (I might be paraphrasing a bit) “As Europe goes, so goes the United States”.
As sad as it it is, I can see the US doing this very thing in the next few years.
The simple solution is to mark the blood “from homosexual donator and for use only to homosexuals”. If the activists want to use blood that they know may be tainted, then they should accept the risk. But, under no circumstances should it be mixed with the general public.
I have always said that people will bow down to the religion of PC even if it means risking their lives and the lives of their family. PC must prevail.
Give it to the Muslims who are invading the place.
I’d rather give them pig blood.
How wonderful. I wonder if ROP’ers are going to be forced to accept that blood.
Sacre ooh.
That blood should only go to other homosexuals.
